A study of Why Anglers Do and Don’t Fish and what will get them on the Water

Maintaining America’s hunting and recreational shooting traditions is important for many
reasons, chief among them being that the hunting and sport shooting industries provide
thousands of jobs annually. Also, hunters and target shooters are essential to species
management and habitat conservation through the funds they donate to conservation, as well as
the excise taxes they pay on hunting and shooting equipment. For this reason, it is essential that
the American traditions of hunting and target shooting be continued.
